We’re beyond excited to reveal today that Matthew E. White will be performing on September 6 at the annual Hopscotch Music Festival, which takes place in Raleigh, NC, from September 6-8. It’s going to be quite a night, and that we can promise. Save the date and join us.

Matthew White’s music is an immediate and refreshing blend of a dozen bold forms. This is a record that has nothing to do with current trends or crossover possibilities. It’s too powerful for such temporary considerations. It’s ready to be heard now, later and always… Of all the shows we’ve presented in three years, from The Flaming Lips in City Plaza to the lineup we’re announcing next Wednesday, this is possibly our biggest project yet.

Matt’s performing at SXSW next Saturday as a part of our dear friends Hometapes‘ Friend Island party. If you’re going to be in Austin, round up your loved ones and your new pals for this one. Hometapes and Spacebomb will be co-releasing Matt’s record this summer. We’re ecstatic for him to do his thing in Austin with some of our best friends.

And who can beat this lineup? Come on.

Reggie Pace will be on SNL tomorrow! From Fight the Big Bull:
